using outlook 2007, it was almost impossible to find the Manage COM Add-ins (it's under the TOOLS \ Trust Center \ Add-Ins \ Manage COM Add-Ins (GO), then select the evernote add-in, and finally click on REMOVE ). oh, you also have to restart outlook after making this change. having said this, starting outlook on a reasonably high-powered PC took upwards of 90 seconds when evernote's outlook clipper/add-in was installed. once it was removed, outlook took less than 2 seconds to load. methinks evernote needs to do more testing to find out why its add-in (1) is so difficult to remove (i literally had to wander through damned-near EVERY setting possible), and (2) why having it installed would cause outlook to choke on itself on startup... as others here have stated, evernote is cool for note-taking, and the ability to "clip" from numerous places can be handy. HOWEVER, it should be easy to tell the product where and when. currently, it sucks in that regard. for what that's worth.
